After revealing that Xbox 360 had topped the seven million sales mark in Europe, Microsoft has claimed that the console is outselling PS3 - both in the UK and across the continent.

In the UK, we've sold more than double PS3's volume since the price drop in September.
In Italy, we were double PS3's sales last week.In France and Germany we are at or better than PS3 consistently now.

We dominate in Russia and the Nordic countries and in Spain - a traditional Sony stronghold - we're now outselling PS3. It bodes incredibly well for our Christmas prospects."

Good news for M$, but with an almost 1.5-2 year headstart in Europe, that's not really great news in November 2008.

The closer the competition, the better it is for us gamers, but M$ has been losing to Sony all year 2008, so this Xmas will be the deciding factor.

Some numbers came out a few weeks back (from nintendo i think) that showed the PS3 dominating the 360 in Europe up until the price drop. Whilst the price srop caused a spike in the UK, mainland Europe is still very much sony-land according to the figures.

So unlesss Microsoft releases some numbers to prove this, im going to go ahead and call spin and PR BS.

they maybe behind in this years sale, but they are well ahead in installed base (5 mil i think), if sony can only win by 600k a year it will still take them more than 5 years to match the 360's install base, so for this year ps3 comes second, overall the ps3 is still in third, and let's not get started on xbox 360's record breaking software attach rate, the ps3 is a great machine it's sonys marketing strategy that's messed up

Whats worst?

having a 1 1/2 year start and staying competitive in sales.

or 

Being the sucessor to the most sucessful console in history with a dominating market share over 60% and barely keeping up in sales?

Obviously, as a company comparing the PS3 to the PS2, Sony doing worse, when just looking at only consoles. However, there is obviously room for improvement if M$ is bragging about sales over the PS3 for a small period, meanwhile the Wii is heading up as the next major console.
Dominating Consoles go as follows :
Atari
Nintendo
Nintendo
Sony

No, Microsoft, you're not. You're clearly using false information. Besides, it's talk like that which makes me despise Microsoft and their X360.

Anyone want to take a bet that the BBC tech section doesn't report this, as they only seem to report Sony press statements verbatim.

360 still has installed base lead, 360 will wipe out the small gains PS3 made early this year after the holiday season

audioaxes
360 should be way ahead of the ps3 really when its so cheap, I mean it's even cheaper than the Wii right now, 360 is doing no where near as good as sony will be doing at the same price once it drops, so 360 needs to take any gains it can get, because once the ps3 hits something closer to the 360 price, sales will skyrocket right passed 360

Read this an weep:

 

"In Italy, we were double PS3's sales last week. In France and Germany we are at or better than PS3 consistently now. We dominate in Russia and the Nordic countries and in Spain – a traditional Sony stronghold – we're now outselling PS3. It bodes incredibly well for our Christmas prospects."

 

The days of the PS3 are numbered...even in Europe.  Expect things to get worse for Sony in the following two months.

what? its not like people will be buying it because its a cheap blu-ray player.

they'll be buying it because it has great games, great upcoming titles, good Free online service, realiable hardware and its also a blu-ray player... that's one hell of a package for whatever price-cut sony might decide to do next year (though i doubt it seeing its already loosing money per unit sold atm)...

but you just own 1 console so you cannot enjoy what both 360 & PS3 have to offer, thats limiting your opinions as a gamer....try getting a PS3 you might change your current views on this console and have a less biased opinion... (happened to me once i got a 360, cause was quite biased towards PS3 before, but now i enjoy both and know that both consoles have a lot to offer)

The 360 outsold the PS3 for 8 weeks in Japan and then....... BAM!!! PS3 closes the gap that the 360 had been creating in 1 week. When the PS3 drops the price it will be flying out the shelves .

And just when do you think the price will hit something closer?  When the Xbox5 comes out?  LOL

 

Sure, when the PS3 hits something closer to the 360 price, sales of the PS3 will pass those of the 360...the thing is...by then the Xbox720 will already have been released.

You're missing the point. The 360 was never supposed to outsell the PS3, ever, in Japan, it was supposed to dead there. Now cows are celebrating about outselling a dead console?

The most interesting battle between the 360 and ps3 will take place in Europe. In Japan the PS3 clearly has the upper hand in sales and in the US the 360 sells better than the ps3. In the UK it is a much closer race.

The other thing that cows don't want to face is that the UK is now the second single biggest market for the 360 & PS3 behind the USA, bigger than Japan, and the 360 is doubling the PS3 sales there. Japan is no longer of the same importance it once was.

Just wait for that "BAM", right?  LMFAO.  Just wait, and wait, and wait.

 

That the 360 outsold the PS3 in Japan, even if it had outsold it for only one week, is outstanding.  Not even Japanese consumers embraced the PS3.

Yeah, PS3s will be flying out of the shelves...to make room for more Wiis and 360s.

But, but...da PS3 is outselling the 360 in Lituania.  The 360 is doomed and the PS3 is superduper wonderfolus. :P

 

The year of the PS3? :lol:  More like the year the 360 finally killed the PS3.

No, Microsoft, you're not. You're clearly using false information. Besides, it's talk like that which makes me despise Microsoft and their X360.metalgear-solid

 

Yeah guys, don't believe anything Microsoft says about Europe.  The definitive authority on console sales in Europe can be found here, in our own SW.  Ask any cow if you want to know how the 360 or the PS3 is doing in Europe...they have up to the minute sales figures.

True, but cows have been claiming overwhelming victory in Europe for more than a year now (based on VGchartz and, apparently, their imagination).   This might not be a victory for the 360, but it is a victory over cows and their propaganda campaign.

Its starting to look like the reverse of last year.

Last year, the cows always tried to use, "Yeah, but 07 was supposed to be Halo's year, but the PS3 outsold the 360 worldwide!" Lord knows I had to read that comment enough...

However, didnt some supposed killer app drop for the PS3 this year? Wait... oh yeah, MGS4! Its starting to look more and more like lems can turn the tables on the cows, and say, "Yeah, but 08 was supposed to be the year of the PS3 and MGS4, but the 360 outsold it WORLDWIDE!"

Karma knocking at the cows door? Hmm?

I find that hilarious.

Heh, cows are avoiding this thread like the plague nowblue_hazy_basic
LOL.   I noticed that. :P 

A couple of them made a half-hearted attempt at damage control, and then left faster than you can say "Dreamcast".

 

Well, after this news, cows have even less material to regurgitate over and over again.  Soon, all that cows will be able to post is "RROD" and "MGS4"...over and over again.

After revealing that Xbox 360 had topped the seven million sales mark in Europe, Microsoft has claimed that the console is outselling PS3 - both in the UK and across the continent.

In the UK, we've sold more than double PS3's volume since the price drop in September.
In Italy, we were double PS3's sales last week.In France and Germany we are at or better than PS3 consistently now.

We dominate in Russia and the Nordic countries and in Spain - a traditional Sony stronghold - we're now outselling PS3. It bodes incredibly well for our Christmas prospects."
